JavaScript Program to Find Area of a Circle



To find area of a circle using javascript, we will be using simple formulae of calculating the area of circle. The formula used is: Area = ? × r² where r is the radius and ? is a constant value pi.

In this article, we are having radius of the circle and our task is to find the area of the circle using JavaScript.

Circle Area

Example

let radius = 10 and ?(pi) = 3.1415926535
Area = ? × r²
Area= 3.1415926535 * 10 * 10
Area= 314.15926535

Steps to Find Area of Circle

  • We have stored radius of circle and pi value in variable radius and pi.
  • Then we have defined a function areaCircle() to find the area. It takes p and r as arguments which represents pi and radius respectively.
  • It returns the area of circle by multiplying pi with square of radius.
  • The area of the circle is calculated by calling the areaCircle() function and passing pi and radius as arguments.
  • The output is displayed in web console using console.log().

Example 1

This example demonstrates the implementation of the above steps to find the area of the circle using JavaScript.

let radius = 10;
let pi = 3.141592653589793238;
function areaCircle(p, r){
    return p *r *r;
} 
let area = areaCircle(pi, radius)
console.log("The area of the circle is: " + area);

Example 2

In this example, we have used Math functions for pi value and to calculate the square of radius using Math.PI and Math.pow() respectively.

let radius = 10;
let pi = Math.PI;
function areaCircle(p, r){
    return p * Math.pow(r, 2);;
} 
let area = areaCircle(pi, radius)
console.log("The area of the circle is: " + area);
